The man in the gray robe lay sprawled on the roof of the building.
A swarm of cockroach-like black beetles was bouncing back and forth on his sagging ankle—just being held, the bones in his ankle were shattered and fractured.
As for the other place... it's... can't be saved...
Why is this so.
He obviously just wanted to kidnap a kid. This kind of thing is not even ranked among the top three things he has done, and he would meet such a ruthless character.
With dead eyes, the man who had no love for life pulled out, and then a ferocious look appeared on his face.
"...Even if I don't want it for 1.5 million, I must avenge this revenge, just wait for me!"
…
When Jasmine returned to Ying's apartment, Xu Shenxing was in the kitchen preparing for the next meal.
Seeing Jasmine's return, he had a relieved expression on his face.
"You're finally back. I'm worried that you can't get through the phone."
Mainly concerns about the safety of the earth.
Putting down his chopsticks, he wiped his hands on the apron: "I know you're tired of the takeaway from my part-time job. How about we have noodles today? As for friends, don't worry, there will always be some when you take your time."
He also thought that the reason why Jasmine came home so late was because she hadn't made any real friends and couldn't bring anyone home, and because she felt ashamed of what she boasted yesterday, that's why she came home so late.
"That... Excuse me." Cui Yingying, who was following Jasmine, greeted Xu Shenxing timidly, looking a little cautious: "Hi, I'm Xu Moli's... classmate, my name is Cui Yingying."
Xu Shenxing was dumbfounded.
Jasmine's little face was full of complacency.
"Could it be that you were caught by Jasmine?" Xu Shenxing asked worriedly.
"No, not at all." Cui Yingying's mouth twitched: "Why do you ask that?"
"Because my Jasmine is not good at making friends..."
"Ah, this cannot be denied." Thinking of the things she suffered in school, Cui Yingying could only smile wryly.
"Landlord, the wives have brought back meat~"
Jasmine turned a deaf ear to the conversation between the two who slandered her, and held up the fresh-keeping bag in her hand, and said triumphantly, "Thank you guys!"
"Woo..."
Because of Qin Xingyan's absence, Xu Shenxing had nowhere to collect the rent during this time. Song Yu was busy taking the accounting certificate exam, so he didn't come these few days, which caused the food standard in Ying apartment to drop again and again. If Xu Shenxing hadn't been there a few days ago I found a temporary worker for Shaxian snacks. I'm afraid they will have to go back to the days when little pickles were only porridge.
"Thank you... Do you want to take a shoulder cart or lift high?" He said to Jasmine reluctantly.
"This is sexual harassment, landlord."
Jasmine returned a look of disdain to him.
Xu Shenxing didn't speak, just stared at Jasmine's washboard, and then...
"Ha ha… "
laughed.
Jasmine kicked Xu Shenxing's calf viciously, and then ran to the kitchen to get a few dishes, regardless of the latter's rolling on the ground with his hands on his legs, and prepared to pour out the vegetables he had brought.
"I made you laugh." After discovering Jasmine's strange gaze, Xu Shenxing immediately got up, pretending to have nothing, and said with an elegant smile.
"No, I just think you have a really good relationship with Jasmine." Cui Yingying showed a little envious look, and then asked, "Excuse me, are you Jasmine's classmate...?"
"I'm her guardian. If I have to say something, it's probably about my father or something." Xu Shenxing replied with some uncertainty.
"But I heard her call your landlord..."
"Because I am indeed the landlord of this apartment." Xu Shenxing took it for granted.
"Eh... but? Huh?" Cui Yingying always felt that her understanding was not on the same channel as the other party's explanation.
"Eat and eat~"
Before Cui Yingying could figure it out, Jasmine was already knocking on the table and waiting for dinner.
"Ah! My face!"
Xu Shenxing also came back to his senses, and ran back to the kitchen screaming.
So the dinner staple turned into a dubious batter...
Even so, the atmosphere at the dining table was very good. There were not many people, but the unique atmosphere in Yingying Apartment made people feel a little intoxicated, especially the conversation between Jasmine and Xu Shenxing, who often lacked roots, always made Cui Yingying laugh. a feeling of.
"It's so late, Yingying, is your family okay?"
Since today's dinner started relatively late, it was almost eight o'clock when the dinner ended.
The sky outside the window has already completely darkened, and the children of ordinary families who haven't come home so late will be a little worried.
"I'm fine." Cui Yingying replied with a smile, but the slight bitterness in the smile made Xu Shenxing understand something.
It seems that although she has a lot of money, this girl seems to be a poor child.
"If this is the case, why don't you just take a shower here before going back?" So Xu Shenxing suggested: "Although my family is poor, but when the apartment was built, we paid special attention to the public bathroom. The inside of the bathroom is much more magnificent than the outside. Oh!"
And although not many people know about it, there is a hot spring in the basement of Sakura Apartment... but the temperature is a bit subtle...
"No need, I don't have a change of clothes..." Although she did sweat a lot (there is only a fan in Ying's apartment, and the Jasmine air conditioner can't work because of outsiders), Cui Yingying still rejected Xu Shenxing's invitation with a smile.
After Jasmine came back from the bathroom, Cui Yingying decided to leave.
"I'm really happy today, thank you for your hospitality." She thanked Xu Shenxing who was about to take a bath.
"Oh, no, no, no, no... Jasmine, you don't want to give it away either."
"Between friends... there is no need to be too polite." Jasmine, who was lying on the sofa, said righteously.
"Turn your eyes away from the TV before you say something like this!"
In the end, Jasmine was kicked out of the house by Xu Shenxing to send Cui Yingying off.
An angry Jasmine walked in front and kept muttering bad things about Xu Shenxing, but for some reason, Cui Yingying felt that the relationship between the two had a level that ordinary family members could hardly match.
"Hey, Jasmine... What is the relationship between you and your landlord?" She asked involuntarily.
"The relationship between the tenant and the landlord." Jasmine answered naturally with a "what are you talking about" expression on her small face.
"No, I'm talking about your relationship with him..." Cui Yingying realized that her question was indeed a bit abrupt, so she could only speak incoherently.
After realizing that Cui Yingying wasn't joking, Jasmine put her finger against her chin, thought for a moment and replied: "When Wo came to this world, he was by Wo's side. That's it."
"That's right..."
I don't know if Cui Yingying misunderstood, but the girl just showed a gentle smile of understanding.
